Night settings, lit only by neon lights: Liam Wong’s photographs transport us to another world.
Liam Wong‘s photographs look like scenes from a videogame, too perfect to be real, and yet they are.
His nocturnal settings are taken in the alleys of Tokyo, where darkness prevails and blue and purple neon lights burst through the gloom, creating evocative and enveloping chiaroscuro.
The colors of his photos overwhelm the senses, capturing reality in an almost magical way, where the gaze is lost between the shadowy silhouettes of passers-by, intent on their daily activities, and the perspective of the narrow alleys of the Japanese megalopolis.
